Anyone know how to split multipage tiff images into separate file?

Hi

Have you looked at IrfanView (http://www.irfanview.com/index.htm)?

Off the top of my head I honestly can't say if it will do what you require (I only have access to it at home), but it is a very good image program (plus it's freeware).

Have a good one, Mike

Thanks Mike. I'd thought if it but wasn't sure if it would split the file or not.

Loaded it up and it "only" views multipage tif images.

Thanks

Honestly I am not questioning you here, but are you sure it can't do what you want -

What is IrfanView? (http://www.irfanview.com/index.htm)

Have you looked at TheGIMP (http://www.gimp.org/index.html) - GNU Image Manipulation Program (freeware).

At a pinch, any graphics programme that can open your files and that supports image cropping should allow you to separate the pages.

Should look further than my nose sometimes.

Yes it does split multipage tiffs. It's not as easy as saying "Split this tiff2 but it does do the job.

Thanks

Robert,
How good are you at batch file programming?

Check out CPC Tool from Cartesian Products....
http://www.cartesianinc.com/Products/CPCTool/

Using their DOC command line tool you can split TIFF files into seperate files. There's switches to tell it that each time it is run to skip a certain number of pages and then how many to extract after that. You'd then have to build a batch file to run it.

To further automate it, you could write a batch file that does the following...Uses CPC Tool's command line switch to write the number of pages found in the TIFF to a text file. Then, read that text file (DOS's FOR command with the /F command extention modifier) to pull the number of sheets into your batch file. They, you could use the DOS FOR command again only with the /L command extension modifier to step one by one through the TIFF extracting one page at a time.

CPC Tool is free for any conversions of ther CPC file format and you get 1000 pages for free of other supported formats (TIFF, PDF, etc).
